[1] Meg is first seen when her eldest son Jimmy and his fiancé come to stay with them after years living away from home.
Meg is initially portrayed as a downtrodden housewife but in her later appearances she is a highly religious woman, who Seth finds hard to live with.
She gets a job as cleaner at The Woolpack pub and accidentally breaks Henry Wilks' favourite pipe.
Henry and Amos Brearly decide to fire her but she resigns from her job before they can do so.
Meg dies in February 1993, of a possible stroke, and Seth finds it hard to cope.
